Blazers trade center Marcus Camby to Houston Rockets, a source tells Y!

I knew Blazers were a dumpster fire but we are never going to get our pick from them at this rate!

Wow... I wonder if we could have traded Corey for Jax + 2012 2nd rounder. That would have been funny!

Blazers will acquire center Hasheem Thabeet and guard Jonny Flynn from Houston for center Marcus Camby, source tells Y!

Blazers get Thabeet, Flynn, and a 2nd for Camby. Good deal for both teams imo. Houston needed another center and Blazers look like they're blowing up.

Spurs got a steal if that Jax trade is official.

i really like what Portland has done. Cleared up cap space by getting rid of Wallace while also getting a top 10 pick (most likely) and now trading Camby for Flynn and Thabeet. Two young guys that still have potential, especially Flynn. They also got a 2nd rounder from Houston.

A lot of people are getting a little too worked up on this if Cho doesn't make a trade thing. I'm disappointed a bit too but he could still do something on draft day. Someone on BP even suggested Cho get fired! :lol:

Unless something very last-minute pops up, #Bobcats won't be making a trade.

Love the deal for Captain Jack. He gets to team up with players in his situation who are aging and wants to win another championship. I'm definitely rooting for the Spurs to win it all this year if that deal gets done.

For Portland, I think they are rebuilding around LaMarcus Aldridge. They have a core so far of Mathews/Batum/Aldridge. Their target will be a premier point guard or big men. I wouldn't be surprised if Dwight might look at that team next off-season in free agency.

Jaruff · Post #532 » by **Jaruff** » Thu Mar 15, 2012 6:38 pm

Spurs giving a 1st round pick to shed Jefferson's salary but I still think it's a good deal. Jackson should be a 15-20 ppg guy for them.

I still think we'll make a trade but keep in mind that it could even be tomorrow before we hear about it. Trades have to be approved and our FO has been pretty good at keeping things in the dark.

Diaw might be bought out but I think we find a suitor for DJ. Possibility Portland acquired Thabeet or Flynn to flip in a DJ trade. We just don't know yet.

The Los Angeles Lakers are still pursuing Michael Beasley, according to sources. Nothing is imminent, but talks haven't ended.

NBA will give teams some leeway to work beyond the 3 pm deadline if they alert the league that they are closing in.

I wonder if we could dump Doris for Beasley??

League source tells me the #Blazers will not trade Raymond Felton today. They couldn't find a taker.
